Plenty of tax relief outfits sell you a "team" and deliver a sales floor: commissioned closers up front, interchangeable case managers in the back, and no lawyer anywhere near your file. I built this practice as the opposite of that. Here, the team is you and an attorney - my name is on the door, my license is on the line, and the person who analyzes your case is the person who resolves it.
What that attorney brings is the playbook. The IRS is a procedural machine: deadlines, formulas, expense standards, appeal windows. After three decades of offers in compromise, levy releases, audit defense, appeals, and Tax Court work, I know which levers move which cases - and just as important, which expensive maneuvers waste a client's money.
I am licensed in Florida, Colorado, and Texas, and admitted to practice before the United States Tax Court. Because the IRS is a federal agency, representation works nationwide - the power of attorney is the same form in every state, and most of this work happens by phone and document exchange anyway. My principal office is in Tampa, Florida.
